Comments Thread For: Porter Brushes Off Late Scare, Dominates Broner

[MC Hammer]

Broner needs a jab, and a new trainer. One that will put their foot in his ass. He has too much talent to be so damn mediocre. He is too young to be so inactive in the ring, and he needs to be able to push the fight or at least get it to be at his desired speed instead of trying to be only a counter puncher.

People saying broner needs to move to 140 do you realize he missed weight his last fight at 140 and reportedly gets to almost 200lbs between fights. Just Google pics of him. He's too big for 140 and struggled against mediocre competition at 140.

Is that so? Then let us witness Adrien's death in Canelo vs Broner.

Second time he fights an elite and falls short. Doesnt necessarily mean he's a bum, just means he's of the lower tier of the elites. Broners definitely got talent, but he's just too basic and barely throws any punches.

[Mr. Punch-Out!!]

Porter didn't look all that great. He smothered too much of his punches. If AB didn't get that point deducted in the 11th, this could have been a draw!

They might have to do this again! It was close fight. A lot closer than 118 - 108

This fight wasn't close. It was Porter all the way, with the KD not even mattering.

Porter just came in and fought his fight and did what he wanted to without much opposition. Ridiculous that late in the fight the commentators where trying to call it like it was a close fight, seriously, you can't give Broner more than three rounds. If Weeks would have done a better job there would have been more than one point taken for holding and if Broner doesn't hold then he would run his ass off because he can't handle pressure. Broner showed what a classless idiot he is in the post-fight interview.

For a guy to have everything against him, promoter, referee, media, the contract, weight and haymon. Its nice to see a humble stand up good guy like Porter dominate and win. And to add to it, do it against a unrespectable jackass like Broner makes the win even that much better. Boxing is better off without Broner. Give me a Porter, Crawford and Spence all day long over guys like Broner.

actually this fight was an alley opp to porter cus broner has been messing up. broner was set up in a tought fight he could win and needed to win but porter is too big and strong. even with the catchweight porter was strong in there and u could tell broner couldnt do much with him

I did. I gave him 2, 5, 8, and 12. And possibly 9. I think 114 - 112 was right! 115 - 111 ain't too bad, but 118 - 110, naw NO!

Porter still kick his azz even while being weight drained

So you are saying this fight was set up for Porter to win? Get out of here with that. I'll give you that Broner had painted himself into a corner and couldn't run away from this fight. Porter would have been a great win for Broner and put him back at the top, so haymon did everything he could to give Broner all the advantages. Unfortunately Porter proved to have some major scruples to himself and won against all odds.

But to say this fight was an alley oop for Porter is crazy.

No way. Broner was the A side, got a higher purse, got the weight in his advantage, and has been heavily promoted by Haymon. Remember he was one of the fighters Haymon chose to debut his PBC brand with, not Porter. He even has the stamp of approval from Floyd as the next PPV star. The deck was stacked in his favor he even had a pro broner ref who ignored countless fouls and still lost lmao
